On April 14, 2000, your application for 401 Water Quality Certification for a
project in Dare County was received by the N.C. Division of Water Quality. Please note
that beginning January 1, 1999, the N.C. General Assembly passed legislation requiring
payment of a fee for all 401 applications. Your application is being returned since no
payment was received with the package. The fee for applications is $200 for projects
impacting less than an acre of wetland and less than 150 linear feet of streams. For
projects impacting one or more acres of wetland or 150 or more feet of streams, the fee is
$475. In order for DWQ to review and process your request, you must send a check in
the appropriate amount made payable to the N.C. Division of Water Quality.
Please call Robert Ridings or Cyndi Bell at 919-733-1786 or visit our web site at

RE: Application for Nationwide Permit #18 1)005 75
New 300,000 Gallon Elevated Pedestal Tank and Demolition of the Existing
100,000 Gallon Leg Tank in Hatteras
HUA No.: DR9810 - Permits
Dear Mr. Dorney:
Dare County is planning to build an elevated water storage tank as part of their water
system improvements in the Hatteras, NC area.
On November 12, 1999, you issued Dare County an Approval of 401 Water Quality
Certification for the purpose of constructing the above mentioned tank based on two site
options we presented to you. Dare County has purchased option #1 and is now ready to
bid the project.
The site plan for the project has changed in that we have added an earthen berm retention
basin for the purpose of draining the tank once every ten years for maintenance and
repainting. The berm is to be constructed of fill material from both on and off site. The
base of the basin will occupy 3,168 square feet of surface area and hold approximately
100,000 gallons of water. After construction of the basin, the natural processes of the
surrounding wetlands will be allowed to re-claim the retention area and will exist
virtually undisturbed except on the occasion that the tank need repairs. In the event the
tank should need repairs, a minimum of 2/3 of the water in the tank shall be drained back
into the water distribution system with a maximum of 1/3 being drained into the basin.
The retention basin is a desired feature, which would aid in any future draining of the
tank by keeping the drained water on site and off the surrounding properties. It is not of
the highest priority and should its presenec not be acceptable to your office we will
remove it from our plans.
